Answer:
a) 7 equal sized pieces of 3/8 pounds
7* 3/8 = 21/8
b) 3 equal sized pieces of 7/8 pounds
3* 7/8 = 21/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Martin has 2 5/8 pounds of ground beef.
2 5/8 = 21/8 pounds = 2.625 pounds
Because 21 is divisible by 3 and 7, we can arrange the ground beef in two configurations
a) 7 equal sized pieces of 3/8 pounds
7* 3/8 = 21/8
b) 3 equal sized pieces of 7/8 pounds
3* 7/8 = 21/8
Answer:
The slope is -x/3 and the y-intercept is -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
200+30+0.2+0.05+0.001=230.251
<span>The probability that a house in an urban area will develop a leak is 55%. if 20 houses are randomly selected, what is the probability that none of the houses will develop a leak? round to the nearest thousandth.
Use binomial distribution, since probability of developing a leak, p=0.55 is assumed constant, and
n=20, x=0
and assuming leaks are developed independently between houses,
P(X=x)
=C(n,0)p^x* (1-p)^(n-x)
=C(20,0)0.55^0 * (0.45^20)
=1*1*0.45^20
=1.159*10^(-7)
=0.000

Step-by-step explanation:
let the numbers are:
a, b, and c
the equation would be:
a+b+c = 131
c = 4a
b = a+5
=>
a + a+5 +4a = 131
6a +5 = 131
6a = 131-5
6a = 126
a= 126/6
a = 21
b = a+5 = 21+5
b = 26
c = 4a = 4(21)
c = 84
